        I think you hit a very important point here: the concern with
        containerized deployments is that they may be a barrier to 
        efficient troubleshooting and bug reporting by traditional methods
        (strace et al) -- unless a well documented debugging and analysis
        toolset/methodolgy is provided.

        Paradoxically, containerized deployments certainly sound like they'd
        free up lots of cycles from the developer side of things (no more
        building packages for N distributions as was pointed out, easier
        upgrade and regression testing), but it might make it more difficult
        initially for the community to contribute (well, at least for us
        dinosaurs that aren't born with docker brains).

        Cheers,
        Phil
